That’s literally the claim they’d been making since 2014.
US is playing by the Russian playbook right now. And EU decided to play along.


Compare it to sugar while at it. It doesn’t need to be harmless, it needs to be less harmful than sugar.
And that’s a fairly low bar to cross.


A giga cycle would demand increase in production capacity, which would drive ASML revenue (and before that shares price) through the roof. Neither is happening. They are doing well, but not “giga cycle” well.

Injecting chemicals just so you can have sweet things power your muscle performance without buildup of acetone doesn’t seem insane to you?
Sugar is a chemical, you dumb fuck.


Oh, German automakers are way ahead of the curve in this regard.


The market can stay irrational far longer than you can stay solvent.


Right. Discredit the whole notion of presidential pardons!


How exactly does discussion of failures of a society help those who struggle right here right now?
When you see a burning building, it’s not a good time to start a discussion on merits of various building materials. Here’s a bucket, start hauling.


Oh the fucking irony!
Did you lose track of the written words after the first question mark perchance?


Not voting is a vote for the winner by default. I highly doubt that every single person that didn’t vote did so due to being unable to.
That’s everyone’s brains. Emotional (and physical) intensity is the strongest reinforcement signal to any learning.
What is wild is lack of factors commonly assumed to be normal.
E.g. it’s fairly normal to have a timeline of your life available for recall at the moments notice. I, on the other hand, sometimes randomly remember a year I totally forgot I lived through and just sit there overwhelmed with no clue how to deal with the revelation.
ADHD is also a designation for a lifelong set of conditions that manifest early in life.
You can end up developing ADHD-like symptoms later in life, but the „late bloom” itself is a good reason to seek and treat underlying conditions.
And to correct a misconception, moving leg is a self stimulation thing. It’s not a hyperactivity manifestation, but a self-grounding action. On its own it’s entirely neurotypical.
„Attention deficit and hyperactivity” designation sits somewhere in the ballpark of „diabetes means your pee is sweet”. Technically correct, easily observable, but ultimately describes symptoms, not the causes underlying them.


If you tar the contents of the two, you’d be unable to attribute the archives to any specific one.
Every bit of code a maintainer accepts becomes their responsibility to maintain. Considering that half the time „improvements” don’t even have tests to help maintaining them, feel free to maintain your own fork.
The wave of „just accept it” is belittling and harmful. It actively segregates, it denies access to professional help, it leaves people who could easily be self sufficient with no tools for self sufficiency.
And most importantly, the way brains work, for something to be recognized it needs a (preferably named) category. Orange was bright brown before we decided that it’s a separate thing.
„How do you know” is such a powerful question.
Beetroot salad. You will panic, though.
